CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

Dev woke up the following evening on a moan. He was on his back, one arm over his head, the other twisting a wedge of blanket up in a fist. Down at his hips, shit was thick and demanding, and tendrils of the dream he was coming out of tantalized.

Something to do with that stairwell to the rooftop and Lyric straddling him, as he held himself in place on the steps.

Closing his eyes, he went right back into the fantasy, seeing her blond hair flowing over her shoulders, her parka open, her turtleneck shoved up over her breasts, her bra pushed under them, her nipples peaked hard—

Another moan rumbled up through his chest—

His alarm went off, the sound of a barking dog shooting through all the sexy and blowing it apart to hell and gone. As his eyes popped open, he slapped his hand around the little table and sent the cell phone flying.

“Motherfucker…”

Sweeping his legs free of the covers, he planted his feet and yanked the blanket aside. Of course, as things dragged across his lap, he hissed through his locked teeth at the friction. And then as he stood up, shit was positively obscene, his erection sticking straight out in front of him like a divining rod—

Bending down for the phone, the true north stayed its course.

As he silenced the alarm, he heard people moving around upstairs, voices in the hall, a siren outside. Life, happening all around him.

Going into his texts, his heart started to pound, but he ignored—

Nope, Lyric’s initial text was still there. She really did want to meet him for dinner.

After verifying she hadn’t changed her mind, and that his affirming response had been seen, he closed out his phone and put it facedown on the bedside table.

Not too late to change this, he reminded himself. You can still pull out.

With a grim resignation, he headed to the bathroom, and as the door was partially closed, he swung his hips and pushed it open with his cock—

Payback was a bitch.

The contact shot was a bolt of lightning into his balls and he sagged against the doorjamb, the wood creaking as his weight hit it. When he went forward again, it was directly to the shower. No chance of going the bladder route, and he didn’t wait for the water to warm up. He stepped under the blast of spray, and led with his dumb handle.

Another plan backfire. He’d wanted to punish himself, but the stinging impacts that tickled his proverbial ivory just made the thing throb more.

Turning his back to the spray, he grabbed his shaft with his left hand, braced his other palm against the tiled wall, and dropped his head into his biceps. The stroking was goddamn delicious, especially as he closed his eyes and imagined it was a different palm against his cock—Lyric’s—and she was setting a rhythm that was hard and fast.

Naked. He pictured her naked and with him, her nipples dripping with water—

Annnnnd that was what did it.
